Some people believe in the most outrageous things, cats are liquids, Wi-Fi causes cancer, I mean I'm pretty sure that a little common sense would go a long way. One thing we can take away from all this is that the Internet is a powerful medium for information — information that people will believe with or without any authoritative punch behind it. Which is why people should be skeptical whenever they read something on the internet; Always question what you read. When you take the time to think about it in the long run, if it's too good to to be true, it probably is.

Though it gives people a voice that can be heard globally, this privilege creates a sort of truth out of false information. Do you believe everything you read or see online? I don't, and maybe people should think twice before deciding if the Moon can clone itself 37 times.
